It's been average at best lately, for awhile.. The low end of the band,
below about 730-ish has been nearly dead and real quiet.
Here's my favorite, "Eagle 810", with 50,000 Watts from Tokyo. I catch them
at the end of a spot break, followed by a station liner and into pop music.
Audio here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i20v1Cl6Rc
873 Pyongyang was in fairly well today at 1847UTC with it's usual music.
Audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFe8bfxWOxU
Here's KBS2 1170 with man and woman talking. Hear that guy undernearth
them? That's Dr. DAvid Jeremiah from the 50,000 watts of KJNP 1170, 300
miles away. Usually, more often they blast in with no sign of KBS.
Sometimes the two compete for the rights to 1170khz and not often, but
sometimes KBS full takes over. One morning, I had KBS2 1170 in the clear,
with no KJNP and a half hour later, KBS2 was gone and KJNP Was in the
clear. Audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFTD71VVhDU
1242 JOLF was nearly perfect, heard with "All Night Nippon" jingle back
into talk programming from the show. Audio:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1gU5eYjj6c
1566 HLAZ was loud, clear, steady and stable with man preaching in Russian
at 1844UTC.

** ALBANIA. 7474.97, Jan 28 at 0247, R. Tirana reception is picking up, S6 of
humbuzz and no program modulation audible. For some weeks it had not been
detectable at all (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ALGERIA [non]. 7335, Jan 27 at 2229, Qur`an at S9+15 but fading. It`s the
final frequency of the day until 2300 from RTA via FRANCE. Aoki shows middle of
hour is Qur`an, start and finish in French/Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** ANGUILLA. 11775, Jan 27 at 1527, PMS is finally back on day frequency, heard
for first time in about 3 weeks, and still distorted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 6754-USB, Jan 27 at 0430, CHR successfully radiates aviation weather
for Comox (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 7435, Jan 27 at 1455, S9 signal with Firedragon music jamming (or is
it just New Year celebrating?), one pip and off at 1500* uncovering a JBA
carrier. In fact, Aoki does not show 7435 as a jammed frequency, just CRI
Nepali via Kunming until 1457 and ALSO CRI Russian via Shijiazhuang until 1500;
plus CRI Pashto via Kunming from 1500. And VOV-1 is also on 7435 until 1600
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5025, Jan 27 at 0452, R. Rebelde is still AWOL, while 4765 Radio
Progreso hits S9+40, and 5040 RHC is still vigent.
5025, Jan 28 at 0245, same situation. Is Rebelde ever on now? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE. 5940-5980, Jan 27 at 0438, NHK Japanese relay on 5960 is again
splattering out about plus/minus 20 kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 5790.0-AM, Jan 28 at 0246, Station YHWH is on, averaging
about S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-USB, Jan 27 at 2226, pirate music at S9+5, soon ``Radio
Gaga, broadcasting from --??-- Lake``. 2232 another ID at S9+20; off at 2246
recheck. Several logs here
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,32531.0.html
say that it`s Zipper Lake, and off at 2237 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Jan 28 at 0248, pirate music at S9; 0252 ID over
music ``Accelerate`` (not X-L-R-8 this time). These days I am lucky to hear one
pirate at a time on The band, rather than two or three (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN [non]. 7570, Jan 27 at 0100 on WRMI, usual VG signal aimed right
across us, with the PCJ Radio International Chinese New Year special, at the
publicized time and frequency (unlike 24 hours earlier, no-show on 11580).
Keith Perron leads up to a drawing for a Sangean SW radio, among those who send
in for an e-QSL with answers to which animal matches their birth year. Also
there are five varieties of roosters, so that distinguishes 12 x 5 different
cycles.
7730 // 6855 // 5850, UT Fri Jan 27 at 0708, WRMI is again playing `Viva Miami`
in Spanish about Chequia, rather than `Media Network Plus` as on the skedgrid
which axually runs consistently 24 hours earlier on Thu. 0715 into `World
Music` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1862 monitoring: confirmed Thursday January
26 at 2130 on WRMI 11580, good. Not completely confirmed, UT Fri Jan 27 at 0030
on WBCQ 9330v-CUSB; something is there, JBA, presumably me. Also confirmed, Fri
Jan 27 at 2230 on new triple-frequency WRMI airing: 11580 at S9+10, 6855 at
less than S9, 5950 at less than S8. Also confirmed UT Fri Jan 28 at 0030 on
WBCQ 9330v-CUSB, JBA (at 0243 during BS, measured on 9329.79, constantly
varying) Next:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. (7490) webcast since I`m at the computer, UT Sat Jan 28 at 0120 from
WBCQ, Allan Weiner is saying a number of projects are planned for this summer
at Monticello, including something he can`t talk about that will change
everything for shortwave radio, if it works (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 7490, Jan 28 at 0227 as I tune past BS on WBCQ, he`s claiming to be
on WRMI for 240 hours a day, and needs reception reports to evaluate what to do
over the next year. Obvious very outdated playback, but who cares? At yearend
he dropped from ten transmitters at a time (24 x 10 = 240) to approximately 4
(sometimes 5, sometimes 3 or 2). So must have concluded he was Overkilling on
WRMI (tho some frequencies dropped in the daytime were the best ones). I`m not
taking time to compute it, but would not be surprised if present usage via WRMI
amounts to a lower multiple of 24, like 96 hpd (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 5830, Jan 27 at 0435, WTWW-1 is distorted and splattering at least
plus/minus 10 kHz, during PPP singing his adaptation into ``This land is His
land ---``. Such a corruption and ``Rawhide`` [non] show up frequently (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 840, UT Jan 27 at 0420 UT, another try to ID the Spanish
religious station here sometimes audible with WHAS nulled, having to put up
with other CCI and IBOC noise from WCCO. It so happens that with LSB fine
tuning in 40-Hz steps on the acceptably misaligned DX-398, these signals fall
about halfway between, so I can`t get just-right demodulation. In a fade-up as
I tune in during gospel huxter`s monolog about how he started an AM & FM
station in Dec 2015. More than once he`s plugging for 33 (rich?) people to
support his ministry (bet I know where he got that number), as it`s
listener-supported and located in ``Mesa, Arizona`` --- so that fits for the
480-AC phone number previously copied, and which I hear again and again, so I
am sure of it: (480) 467-4626, presumably belonging now to someone other than
the Anglo woman one lookup led to. I still want to ID this by monitoring /
research, but if all else fails, I`ll eventually phone him and ask which 840
station he`
s on, KVJY Pharr TX?
And he announces a second phone number, of which I am not so certain, (770)
989-4791. That AC is not Albuquerque, but suburban Atlanta GA, which makes no
more sense on 840 kHz than (480) does. Into a fade at 0425 UT; back up somewhat
at 0433 UT with a program ID ``--- radio`` and a website, neither of which I
can copy, both given only once. No more fade-ups caught by 0500 UT Jan 27.
840, Jan 28 at 0240 UT another try. Worse reception tonight until 0300 UT; fade
up a bit at 0253 UT can tell praise music is playing instead of verbal
proselytizing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
